Abstract
The interdigital-H-type (IH) linear accelerator (LINAC) is well known for its high shunt impedance at low and medium particle velocities. Th erefore, it can be used to operate efficiently with a high acceleratio n gradient. The IH LINAC cavity is able to generate 10 MV m(-1) (avera ge acceleration gradient) with focusing of the particles by a supercon ducting solenoid and quadrupole. The LINAC can accelerate particles wi th a charge to mass ratio (q/A) greater than 1/250 from 0.3 MeV a.m.u. (-1). In a compact heavy-ion inertial fusion driver design, the total effective length of the IH LINAC cavities is about 1250 m.
